Ballad Of The Green Beret Chords by Barry Sadler
key: CC]
Fighting soldiers from the sky
GC
Fearless men who jump and die
FC
Men who mean just what they say
GC
The brave men of the Green Beret
C
Silver wings upon their chest
GC
These are men, America's best
FC
One hundred men we'll test today
GC
But only three win the Green Beret
C
Trained to live, off nature's land
GC
Trained in combat, hand to hand
FC
Men who fight by night and day
GC
Courage deep, from the Green Beret
C
Silver wings upon their chest
GC
These are men, America's best
FC
One hundred men we'll test today
GC
But only three win the Green Beret
C
Back at home a young wife waits
GC
Her Green Beret has met his fate
FC
He has died for those oppressed
GC
Leaving her this last request
C
Put silver wings on my son's chest
GC
Make him one of America's best
FC
He'll be a man they'll test one day
GCFC
Have him win the Green Beret
